Well, sure…
Inflation rate was up 9.1% in June 2022.

It doesn’t help to go “Well, you know, it’s only up 2.7% as of last month…” when that’s really 2.7% on top of 2.4%, on top of 2.3%, on top of 2.4%, on top of 2.8, 3, etc. etc. etc.
There has not been a single break since 9.1%, it just keeps going up.
It never goes down… it’s always going up
Well depression brings it down. Not that I’d recommend that per se.
Only way it goes down is if there’s a recession. Pick your poison: recession or inflation. We’re damned if we do, damned if we don’t. There’s no way out of this that isn’t going to suck for a lot of people.
Only because the economic system is working as intended. There is always enough to go around, profits just get in the way of getting it around.
I’m in that 10% who isn’t worried because I never look at the price of anything I’m buying. I also can’t get a loan because my credit score is a 6.
We could be living in a post-scarcity world but then rich assholes wouldn’t be able to exploit our basic needs for profit and they’d have to settle for just being rich.
The other 10% are those skinny mother fuckers aren’t they?
Are we still talking about grocery prices? These prices have been talked about for years. Are people still talking about these prices, those creepy numbers? That is unbelievable. Do you want to waste the time?
Practice? We talkin’ about practice?
Don’t worry daddy Trump will take care of everything on day one! /s
